My Haiku Has Arrived!!! WOOHOO!!

My dear blog-friend, Jerseygirl89 at Dirty Little Secret, has written me a Haiku as a holiday present. She held a contest of sorts - the first five readers to comment on a particular post could choose the present of their choice (haiku, blog review, artwork from her daughter...). Isn't that a cool idea?? I am SO overjoyed and so excited to share this with you. She is such a great gal, and this just made my day.

So, without further ado, here is the haiku she wrote for me:

A Haiku For Marci

Marci found me so
feel especially lucky
to have found her back

She is so so brave
Fighting her pain all the way
Making us smile too

Marci's Myriad Musings
such a super blog to read
a new perspective

Marci is so kind
She even gives out awards
what a fab blogger

Marci asks questions
like what will she name her car
I must know today

You have to read the
blog that belongs to Marci
or you will be sad.

(PS - I will prepare the "Name My Car" poll and update you on my doctor's appointment later today)

Check out the "Chanukah Countdown Party"

Only SIX DAYS left until Chanukah, the Holidays of Lights! Jews all over the world celebrate the miracles, victories, and heroes of the Chanukah story for eight days. Beginning on the night of December 4, we will sing songs, eat Latkes (potato pancakes) and Sufganiyot (jelly donuts), light menorahs, spin dreidels, and give presents to our friends and families.

My friend and colleague, Phyllis, is hosting a Chanukah Countdown Party on her blog. There are lots of wonderful tips for celebrating, including some green Chanukah ideas. Plus - best part - a GIVEAWAY!!

Go ahead, visit her party by clicking on the graphic below.

My Car-friend's Back and You're Gonna Be in Trouble...

I got my car back today!! YAY!!! To make a very long story short, the engine exploded back at the end of the summer, and a variety of circumstances prevented me from both fixing it and getting it back. But, today, the ordeal has come to an end, and my baby is back!

The picture above is NOT my exact car, but looks very similar. She is really cute, and is just the best. But, now, I have a quandary - I need your help. What should I name her???

Please submit your name suggestions for my green camry -
I will hold a vote of my top four choices, and whoever wins gets to know that they have named my car! Woohoo!!

Go ahead and leave your suggestions in the comment page. I will then post a poll, and we shall see what my car will be named. Thanks for your help in advance :)
